How’s balancing Blues rugby with your finals? Ancient linguistics and scrum half play are just a natural combination, I guess. “Gentleman, scholar, athlete” sums me up nicely…

Fancy your chances of retaining the jersey at Varsity this year? Hard to say. Ben Wilson from John’s is challenging pretty hard and Dom Blake has come in from Nottingham, so I could have my work cut out for me. I’m training hard though and I’m pleased with how I’m playing.

How’s team bonding? It’s been good – on the pre-season tour of Ireland a team-mate and I accidentally met on the landing of a house we’d both been whisked off back to by girls we’d met. We didn’t even know the other was there! Saved on the taxi ride home though.
